On Ice

Before my wife went to work this afternoon, we took the boys ice skating at a rink near us. This is Nils' first winter on ice skates. He's taking to it quite well. We didn't get out much last winter, but Anders is remembering what to do. If he holds on to a chair, he can zoom across the rink.

My wife grew up on a lake, skating between her father's legs when she was little. I'm envious of her skills. I didn't have those opportunities. I'm glad our boys are able to have them.
